The group 1 elements, which are the alkali metals.
Francium would likely form an ionic bond with bromine by transferring its single valence electron to bromine in order to achieve a stable electron configuration. This would result in the formation of francium bromide (FrBr).
Elements in group 17 need one electron to gain a stable electron configuration. Two atoms of the same element or two elements in this family forms compounds with a single covalent bond. Examples are chlorine, bromine or iodine chloride.
Bromine does not generally form double bonds, but there are rare cases in which it does. Bromine double bonds are highly unstable, so answer no for anything lower than an organic chemistry class.
Elements in group 1 (alkali metals) have 1 valence electron. This single electron is in the outermost energy level of the atom, making these elements very reactive and likely to lose this electron to achieve a stable electron configuration.
No. The bromide ion (Br-) contains only a single atom of bromine with an extra electron.
A bromine atom typically has seven electrons in its outer shell, which means it only needs one more electron to have a full octet of eight electrons. Bromine can achieve an octet by gaining one electron to form a stable bromide ion with a -1 charge.
Elements in column F of the periodic table (Group 7A/halogens) typically form one single covalent bond as they only need to gain one electron to achieve a stable electron configuration. This allows them to share an electron pair with another atom to reach a full valence shell.
In the electron-dot structure of HBr, hydrogen will have one dot representing its one valence electron, bonded to bromine that has seven dots representing its seven valence electrons. The bond between hydrogen and bromine will consist of two electrons, one from hydrogen and one from bromine, forming a single bond.
With the exception of hydrogen, all elements have an electron cloud, and a nucleus composed of protons and neutrons. Hydrogen has a single proton nucleus orbited by a single electron.
Bromine (Br₂) has one covalent bond. This bond is formed between the two bromine atoms by sharing two electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
When two atoms of bromine bond together, they form a diatomic molecule called dibromine (Br2). Each bromine atom shares one electron with the other to form a single covalent bond between them.
Elements with a 6s1 electron include francium (Fr) and cesium (Cs). In the orbital diagram, the 6s1 electron would be represented as a single arrow pointing upwards in the 6s orbital.
